Kawhi has become as good a scorer as PRIME Manu in his own way
I was running queries on "Player Season Finder" scrutinizing Kawhi breakout season thought I should share it with y'all:
#1) Points Per 100 Possessions >= 32 and Field Goal Attempts Per 100 Possessions <= 23 and True Shooting Pct >= 0.600 and 3-Pt Field Goals >= 100: http://bkref.com/tiny/RKYLy
-Kawhi is scoring as only a point less (32 vs 33) than 2013-14 HarDone (his 1st season with Dwight) per 100 possession on similar efficiency (TS>=60% & 22 FGAs/100)
-HarDone averaged 24 ppg that season, Kawhi could have done with more shot attempts (Porker::bang) while maintaining his efficiency unlike Jimmy Butler/Paul George who are averaging 24ppg on an inferior TS%.
-2013-14 HarDone/Dwight/Parsons/Asik/Beverly/Lin/T-Jones/Casspi/Brooks = 2015-16 Kawhi/LMA/Porker/Timmay/Manu/Diaw/West/Patty
-It's also pretty clear Manu could have been a HarDone type franchise player if he was the face of the franchise during his mid 20s.
-LoL @ Kevin Martin being on the list :lol
-FYI: Bird in '85'-'86 averaged 32 per/100 on 2 more shots & averaged 24 ppg (same as Klay Thompson this season).
#2) Kawhi about to become the only player in history w/ a 50/48/88 line:wow
-Multiple cats have done 50/40/90 but Kawhi is close to going 50/50/90 with leaderboard qualifying stats & 100+ made 3s.
-There actually hasn't been anyone who has shot 50/40/80 with a 100+ made 3s while playing elite defense (Defensive Box Plus/Minus >= 2). The closest one is Bird in '86-'87 but he didn't make a 100+ 3s: http://bkref.com/tiny/ndgt8

Players who've shot 50% FG, 45% from 3, and 85% from the FT Line and average at least 20 points a game. Kiki Vandeweghe is the only one to accomplish that, Steph and Kawhi are on pace to also do it.

Well it was the 80s, guys didn't take a lot of threes back then. Larry Bird led the league with only 90 made 3s.

Isn't per36min more accurate than per 100 poss for this kind of comparison? I'm not saying it is, just curious

Per 100 adjusts for pace, per 36 doesn't.

Re: Kawhi has become as good a scorer as PRIME Manu in his own way
When you have to put "in his own way" into the title, you've already told everyone its bullshit. When you can say he's become as good a scorer was PRIME Manu, without any qualifications, start a thread that says so, and I'll bother to read that one.

The queer contingent that comprises these faggot alts can't wait that long for this OP to get some play, so he has to do something right now, including multi-bump, to try to peddle it to even those who know him personally.

Scoring alone doesn't account for all play making.

Where the fuck did I saying anything about playmaking being the same as scoring?:downspin:

Re: Kawhi has become as good a scorer as PRIME Manu in his own way
Great thread OP. Kawhi as a scorer and defense is already better than Prime Manu.

These type of titles are misleading. Comparing Kawhi to Manu is absurd. Kawhi will never provide what Manu has provided on the offensive side of the ball. Manu and team Argentina changed the way basketball is now played in the NBA.

I would say this is pretty much true now considering Kawhi scoring average and FG percentage is higher than even Manu's best season.

Basically, Kawhi is to the current team what Manu was to the ill-fated 2011 squad.
